    lots of yummy breakfast ideas!!

    mine is typically a toasted english muffin with a couple servings of creamy PB (so 4 TBSP PB total)

    or, a healthy serving of oatmeal, sometimes on it's own (i get the individually pre-packaged flavored kind - usually use 2-4 packets per meal when i eat oatmeal), sometimes with sliced up fruit tossed in.


    ETA: and COFFEE!! always lots of coffee. it is mandatory.

    I have one egg, two egg whites, omelet style (sometimes I add 1/4 cup of mozz. cheese or a thin slice of ham, chopped), a piece of 12-grain toast with one Tablespoon of peanut butter on it, one piece of fruit (usually banana or orange), and my 'treat' of the day.. a double mocha cappuccino. I know, I'm bad. In about 2 hours after that I'm eating a protein bar and another piece of fruit. It keeps me going all morning.

    haha that sounds like a good way to start the day!

    It is a great way to start the day! I love my breakfast! It used to be waffles or French toast. Not anymore! :wink:

    Almost always porridge with almond milk + chopped banana, plus a boiled egg and loads of tea. Occasionally its a bowl of cheerios or poached eggs or veggie omelette.

    don't skip it, that's the worst thing you can do to set yourself up for failure. Getting out of control and eating everything in sight

    What nonsense.

    If by breakfast you mean the first meal of the day (since I don't always eat right when I wake up), then I tend to have omelets or oatmeal. My omelets have 1 whole egg and 4 egg whites as a base (because I want more protein without lots of calories, no other reason) and I add various veggies, cheeses, etc. to them. I have lots of oatmeal recipes, but they are all sweetened with protein powder. I like ON Gold Standard Vanilla Ice Cream, and then you can flavor it with different berries or pumpkin puree.

    Lots of things, but you can't beat a breakfast burrito for a quick, nutritious meal.

    On weekdays it's two granola bars.

    On the weekend, it's a cup of Special K cereal and milk.

    I've never been a big eater in the morning, the fact that I consume ANY food before 10 am is new in the last few years.

    Either three whole eggs, a slice of sourdough toast with butter, half a banana or some other fruit, black coffee

    or

    Oatmeal with 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt, fresh berries, walnuts, honey and cinnamon, black coffee.

    I usually eat 2-3 pastured chicken or duck eggs, some sort of meat, blueberries or any kind of fruit, some raw milk and a small slice of toast with butter if I have any bread.

    I just want to say I love your breakfast... I wish I could down breakfast like that without worrying about putting on lbs... Mine would be oatmeal with addition of whey protein powder or onions with green peppers ... Chicken and poached egg... Or I would mix pumpkin puree with cottage cheese.... Greek yogurt...protein powder for a quick breakfast after my morning workout... Simple ... Fast... And delish!!!

    I actually don't really like breakfast very much so I either skip it or have a Slim Fast meal replacement shake. I know, I know, bad girl. If I do eat something it's usually peanut butter and jam toast with or without a fried egg with a slice of cheese and ketchup (that's really good in a sandwich too). Lately I've been trying to have a bowl of crispy rice cereal or corn flakes though because I need the added iron; I'm really not a fan of cereal though.

    Breakfast is usually my biggest and only meal of the day so I make it big and protein-y.

    Some days: 3 egg substitute with ketchup or green peppers and one slice of 100% wheat bread with 1/2 tbsp of butter
    Other days: 1 and 1/4 servings of cereal with skim milk and medium sized banana and a granola bar
    Late for work: Wheat bagel from dunkin and 1 1/2 tbsp of butter and on occasion dunkin hash browns.

    At least 3 cups black coffee with stevia and cinnamon. 1 Eggland's Best egg (soft-boiled or fried in Smart Balance cooking spray); 1/2 Fiber One Whole Wheat English Muffin, 1 tsp. real butter, 1-2 slices turkey bacon (the kind without MSG). Sometimes I follow it up with a Chobani plain Greek yogurt with stevia & 2 scoops of chia seeds.

    Or, an Almased shake made with plain almond milk, stevia and chia seeds.

    I also like Special K Protein Plus with almond milk, sprinkled with All-Bran, sweetened with stevia.

    On workdays, it's greek yogurt with dry cereal on top (loving Nature's Path Flax Plus), a banana, and coffee.

    On weekends, it's 1 whole egg + 2 egg whites dipped in hummus, a banana, and an orange... I kind of love fruit. And of course, coffee.

    I never used to eat breakfast. Doctor made me do it...lol. He recommended one brand of protein shake, so I normally do a protein shake in the mornings made with vanilla almond milk. Then sometimes a few hours later I eat a banana or a packet of oatmeal.

    I sleep in on the weekends, so normally I just don't bother with breakfast and just consider my lunch to be "breakfast".

    Lately I've been having smoothies. Tomorrow's will have 1/2 a banana, a cup of chopped mango, an apple, 1/2 C oats, a cup or fresh spinach, 2 servings of whey protein isolate powder, and a tablespoon each of chia seeds and milled flax. It's going to be delicious.
